What Causes Pain On Calf And Behind Knee While Flexing Leg?
When I sit criss cross I have pain on the outside of the leg, also when I flex my leg all the way to touch my leg and calf I have pain in the middle part back section of my knee. It does not feel like anything when I walk, but I was playing basketball and it hurts.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a muscle strain. I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen to relieve the pain. Warm compresses and magnesium supplements can also cause muscle relaxation.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
